Bad Quality in photos sync from Aperture

I have just bought a shiny new imac with Aperture Installed and I've found a problem when syncing projects in Aperture with my iPhone.
What happens is that about a third of all photos I sync appear blurred and pixalated on the iphone even though they are crisp and clear in Aperture. I've tried the unsync and resync 'cure' with no success.
One curious thing though, if I export the project from Aperture into a folder on my hard drive and then sync directly from that ALL of the photos are crisp and clear even the ones which were originally blurred.
As I said this is a new imac and I've never used Aperture before so I wondered if there was something I might be doing wrong or some setting I may have missed, because it seems that the problem is something to do with Aperture but I'm at a loss on how to cure it.

Thank you that solved the problem. I had a feeling it was going to be something I'd missed in the settings but I never would have guessed that it was to do with preview sizes. I'd always assumed it was the master copies that were sync'd.
So thank you one again

  • Apple TV 1st Gen + iTunes 10 + Photo Sync (with Aperture 3) = No Sync

    I recently started to experience the same issues that others have reported regarding not being able to sync their Apple TV classic (1st generation) with iTunes 10.
    I grudgingly disconnected my Apple TV from iTunes which wiped out all the content. Then when I started a new sync, the Apple TV (and my iMac) froze when trying to connect.
    So, I disconnected them again, and quickly set the sync preferences to a "Custom" sync. After an hour of playing around with the settings, and turning on (one by one) syncing of video content, music and podcasts, I've narrowed it down ... to Photo syncing with Aperture.
    All of the other content that iTunes will let me select, syncs fine. I've re-synced my entire music library, but if I even setup iTunes to sync 1 photo from Aperture to my Apple TV ... freeze-o-matic.
    Anyone else run into this issue and/or been able to find a workaround to fix it?

    Finally found answer, many thanks to:

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Your library has become a secondary (streaming only) library only (it is possible to turn syncing off by ctrl-clicking on the Apple TV listing in the device list and choosing 'Turn Off Syncing" from the contextual menu) and you need to reconnect your library as a primary library.
    Navigate to Settings > Computers > Your Library on the Apple TV, you may be told you will lose all synced content, but you can sync it back afterwards, you won't lose any purchased content that has yet to be transferred. Then select Settings > Computers > Connect To iTunes, note the passcode that appears on screen, click on the device in iTunes and enter the passcode when prompted.

  • How do I upload photo versions from aperture to my Ipad using photo stream.

    I am not able to upload photo versions from aperture to my ipad using photo stream.  The only photos that upload are the ones that have not been retouched.  However when I try other unretouched photos in a different album they do not upload.  Do I have some incorrect settings that need to be adjusted.

    The photos that hove not been altered in aperture are uploaded in photo stream however the altered photos (versions) are not.
    That is puzzling. My shared photo streams do upload all image versions I am dragging to them - original version and edited version. But both versions have to be shared to the stream, and they have to be unstacked, as Thomas already pointed out.
    Sometimes it takes a long time for the images to appear in the Shared Photo Stream, however. Maybe your Aperture Library needs repairing. Have you tried the Aperture Library First Aid Tools? Launched Aperture with the ⌥⌘-kys held down?

  • HT4221 How does the Ipad5 sort photos synced from a computer

    How does the Ipad5 sort photos synced from a laptop? 

    Hi Nancy 2803,
    I am guessing you want to sync photos from your iPhone 5S to a Laptop i.e. a Windows Laptop.
    Firstly when you insert your iPhone into your computer, go to:
    1.     Computer
    2.     Wait for the Laptop to recognize the iPhone
    3.     Right Click on your iPhone Named: [NAME iPhone] or something simular
    4.     Click import pictures and videos
    5.     Click import settings
    6.     Click Folder Name
    This folder name is how the images will be arranged, either:
    a) Date imported and Tag
    b) Date Taken and Tag
    c) Tag and Date imported
    d) Tag and Date taken
    e) Tag and Data Taken Range
    f) Tag
    I use Date Taken and Tag as this allows me to see in my pictures library a date and the images taken that date, i.e. all the images taken on the 25/12/2013, if you use date imported, you just get all your images stored in one folder and cannot quickly find images on a date.
    In this setting you can also change the folder to where the images/videos will be saved, the name of the images as well as options such as delete images from the device once imported.
    Many Thanks, Happy New Year and I cannot wait to hear from you again in regards to this issue.

  • Blurry photos on Everpix (syncing from Aperture)

    I'm trying to sync pictures from my Aperture library to everpix.com using their Mac Uploader.  However, no matter what I do, every single picture I upload is fuzzy when viewed within the everpix.com website.  You can see a screenshot of a duck from the website (right), overlayed with the jpg that was synced with the Mac Uploader (left).  The website image is so much fuzzier than the original image that I can't believe anyone isn't complaining about this - I must be doing something wrong.
    Every single picture I've uploaded looks like this.  I thought maybe it was something wonky with the fact that I was viewing this on a Retina MacBook Pro, but I tried it on my wife's non-retina MacBook and I can still see a difference.  If I download the picture to my computer and view it in preview, it's as tac sharp as the original.  If I sync my Aperture library with another service like Loom or SmugMug, I do not have this problem - the photos on the website look like they do in preview.
    There are no everpix forums or discussion board, so I emailed everpix and got this response:  "If you want to compare photo quality, you need to compare with a downloaded full-resolution photo from Everpix (that's of course assuming you synced full-resolution photos to Everpix in the first place)."
    I find this hard to believe - I know they have their own image optimization (https://support.everpix.com/entries/23231607) but it shouldn't make all of my photos look blurry and out of focus.
    Is anyone else experiencing this issue?
    Thanks!

    Photos added to a shared stream will be a lower resolution than the originals in your camera roll but they shouldn't be blurry.  If they are, you could try again later to see if it's a server problem.  Otherwise, to get the originals from your computer in your camera roll you'll either have to email them to your self, then save them to your camera roll or use an app like PhotoSync to transfer them to over your wifi.

  • Selected videos won't sync from Aperture through iTunes to my iPhone 5s

    I don't know if this is an iPhone issue, an Aperture issue, or an iTunes issue . . .
    I'm using Aperture, on my iMac, and have created albums that contain videos (as well as photos). Some videos are iPhone-created that I imported from my iPhone into Aperture (since iCloud/Photostream does not automatically cloud videos); some videos were created by me in a separate program (iMovie or FCPX) and then down-mixed to put into my Aperture album. I'm trying to sync my Aperture album (not Event, but Album) to my iPhone 5s so that I have an album on my iPhone directly mimicking my Aperture album.
    The pictures come over perfectly, sorted by date as they are in Aperture. However, the videos have issues. Most importantly, only the ones originally created by my iPhone come back across to my phone, and in the correct album. Anything that I've created (Final Cut Pro X or iMovie) are not coming through (down-mixed as .mov files).
    I do have the "include videos" box checked in iTunes; that only serves to bring over the iPhone-created movies, some of which it dropped into the synced album, some of which it decided to put into my videos album.
    Anyone out there have any ideas what I could be doing differently? I'd like all my videos in my Aperture album to come across to my iPhone in the same album.
    Second smaller issue is that movies I made on my iPhone 5s in slo-mo, though they imported to Aperture in slo-mo, are syncing back to my iPhone 5s in real time, not slo-mo.
    Aperture: 3.5.1
    iPhone: 5s, 8.0.2
    iMac: 10.9.5
    iTunes:  11.4(18)

    As a follow-up, I down mixed the video in FCPX using "Apple Devices" 720p. That did not help.

  • A better manual? & what about photo stream from Aperture?

    Is there a better manual for ATV other than the one that came with it? I find that one VERY lacking in operating instructions for the ATV.
    And what about setting up to stream photos from my photos in Aperture? The only options in the menu are Flickr, Mobile Me and to sync. Syncing all my photos would really eat up the HD space! I would rather stream.
    Looks like the option to stream photos from Aperture was eliminated with the last ATV firmware update. What gives Apple??

    I have a similar problem using photo stream, turned it on the other day after I had been emailing pics from my laptop and then opened mail on my iPad and opened pics which were all high resolution, photos looked great in photos and albums, but a couple of hours later when they had downloaded in photo stream they were pixelated. They also streamed to my iPhone 4 and the same problem there. A couple of months ago I installed iPhoto on my phone and edited a pic that was on my phone and when saved it also pixelated. I'm beginning to think this is maybe the cause of this, because as I have said, these are high res files and look great when viewed through camera roll, photos or albums, it's only the photo stream folder that is affected. Does photo stream down sample images? Doesn't explain why the iPhoto edit on my phone pixelated though. real curious as to why this is happening, maybe just turn photo stream off.

  • Weird workaround for syncing from Aperture

    I sometimes regret moving from iPhoto to Aperture. It ought to be an improvement, but there are problems with iPhone syncing. Lots of posts here about that. I have my iPhone 4 set to sync all photos from Aperture. I noticed some individual photos were not syncing from a particular album. Could not figure out why. Noticed that these photos were the only ones in the album without keywords. Added a keyword, and then they synced. But this does not seem to be uniform. I looked at other photos in my Aperture library also did not have keywords, but they synced. Wonder if it has something to do with the fact that those pictures that were not syncing were added to my library using a card reader rather than connecting the camera (Canon EOS digital Rebel). Anyway, if anyone has any thoughts . . .

    You’re welcome.
    can I just delete all of the messages in my .mac inbox periodically
    once I know they have all been copied to both computers?
    Yes. Beware, however, that copying the messages may cause things such as clicking on the reply arrow to find the reply to a message to stop working because the copy may not be recognized as being the same message. You may want to check whether things work as you expect before getting rid of the original messages.
    If I delete them in the .mac inbox in mail I presume they will
    disapear from the server?
    If you delete them from the account’s Inbox in Mail or from the server via webmail, they’ll disappear from everywhere as a result of Mail synchronizing with the server.
    Actually, if you move the messages to a locally stored mailbox, instead of copying them, that’s enough to remove them from the server (and from the other computer) as well.
    Thus, you may want to designate one of your computers as the “master” and move the messages there instead of copying them after having copied them on the other.
    there is no way of automating the deleting of messages from the
    inbox after a period of time.
    There is a way by setting up a rule that invokes an AppleScript that forces the rules to be evaluated for already existing messages. Andreas Amann’s Mail Scripts’ Filter Sent Messages script illustrates how this technique works. I don’t recommend you to do that for what you want to accomplish, though.

  • Syncing from aperture fail.

    I have got a problem during syncing my photos from Aperture to my iPhone.
    And later iTunes wrote aperture library is not available. What can I do now?
    Thanks.

    Are you sure that it isn't how you are viewing them on the iPad? Open Photos on the iPad and note that there are 2 icons at the bottom (Photos & Albums). Have you tried changing that to Albums?

  • MobileMe gallery switched syncing from Aperture to iPhoto

    I had an album on Aperture that synced with MobileMe. Friends added photos via email and via web upload, and all was good. Until one day when the Aperture web album was gone. MobileMe album was still there, but it says (under Info) that it's syncing with iPhoto (which I haven't used in 4 years). So I load up iPhoto and, voila, it starts syncing.
    How can I tell MobileMe to sync with original Aperture? This is a real pain.

    Actually this is an Aperture issue since this problem only occurs when I export and then import files from aperture into iphoto 08. When I import files off a disk or external compact flash disk directly into iphoto 08 and then upload to the web gallery they retain the same file size yet the files that were brought over from aperture somehow loose there size once they go to the gallery. Interstingly enough the file size of versions brought over from aperture appear to remain in tact in iphoto but drop off once on the web???? Does this have anything to do with Versions as reference files...but if so how does one retain the chaanges made in aperture to a master file and export it to iphoto 08 and then on to the web and still retain some semblance of file size??? Note I already did enable downloading prior to uploading to the gallery.. HELP!

  • IPad 2 photo sync w/ Aperture 3

    Just got an iPad 2. Tried to sync photos from Aperture 3 library to iPad via iTunes.
    One album sync'd, the rest did not.
    The album that sync'd shows up on the iPad as an "event", not an album.
    I can't think of any differences between the photos that came over and those that did not.
    Cameras:Primarily D90 and D7000, imported to Aperture as RAW.
    There was an error message that one, much older image couldn't be imported because of its format, but no other, specific images were listed as problems.
    Thank you in advance.

    When looking at the photos in the photos app are you looking in all to the categories up top Photos, Albums, Events, they could be hiding.

  • Photos syncing from folder to iPhone all out of order?

    I have 2 folders synced to my iPhone 4 photo app.
    They were previous camera rolls before I set up my phone as a new device. They are all named in order and taken in order, for example IMG_001.jpg was my first picture in my old camera roll. IMG_822.jpg was the last photo taken before I did the backup, and is the last in the folder.
    The folder I am syncing from on my windows computer displays all of the pictures by filename (and because of that, by date) but when syncing with iTunes they end up on the phone ALL out of order. I can't find any rhyme or reason to how they are displaying. Most of the earlier photos show up at the beginning like they should, and the last at the bottom of the scroll appear to be mostly right, but then it's completely random from there.
    I've tried unsyncing them, removing them, and then adding them back again and nothing seems to work. I've even tried renaming the IMG_xxx numbers to different things and they still appear to sync in the same random order.
    Am I doing something wrong, or is this a huge bug for someone with OCD like me? lol

    This is highly annoying.
    I have probably 15-20 Smart Albums in iPhoto 8.1.2 in OS10.6.4 that are syncing to iOS4.0
    On the old software, my Smart Albums for photos would show up AS the smart albums I created. Now they show up in the iPhone one giant mess called "Photo Library".
    I can view photos broken up under "Events" on the iPhone by specific dates, but the dates don't tell me what the name of the event was, and some Smart Albums had multiple dates grouped together in one Smart Album and I don't really want them broken out separately by date. I want them organized how I organized them...
    In short, I want my photos grouped the way I have explicitly grouped them. It used to work, it doesn't now.
    Since iOS4.0 I am also getting sync errors all the time in iTunes. "iPhone cannot be synced because the required file cannot be found." WHICH FILE??? tell me and I will delete it...
    I've rebuilt the entire database in iPhoto (took 4 hours). I've scanned iTunes and removed all broken links and duplicate files. I've scanned the hard drive with the disk tool. I've emptied the iPhone and reinstalled iOS4 on it 5 times. I've turned syncing off for all non-essential applications and stuff I don't actually sync like voice memos. Same problem.
    I think I want my iOS 3 back. I don't really like multitasking anyway, always having to turn off applications for the one or two times in a million where task switching if helpful...
    Ugh....

  • Photos sync from computer folders, but are in the wrong albums and some photos only appear as a white box?

    On my iPad 2, I'm syncing my photos through iTunes from folders on my computer, as I am a photographer and don't like to use iPhoto and not have direct access to my original files.
    My photos sync without any hassle, but when viewing them on the iPad half the photos present as white boxes or a half photo/half white screen. I tried resetting iPad as a last measure, I've deleted the photo cache etc, to no avail. In fact, the most recent time I tried it didn't fix the white screen, but also added another issue- my photos now are completely mixed up within the albums. Christmas photos and showing in the Easter album and so on, there seems to be no logic in it! As I was given my iPad last month by my father in laws company, they had bought their stock a while ago and it's now out of AppleCare support - even though I've only used it for a month! Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
    My Mac is a 1 yr old MacBook pro running snow leopard. My iTunes was the second oldest version, have just updated to most recent version, but it hasn't fixed anything.

    Updating to the latest Iphoto release solved this. First time it rebuilt the libraries the pics appeared again.

  • Photos synced from PC to iPad are not in the correct orientation or the correct order.

    Photos shot in portrait orientation are rotated on PC, but when synced return to original. Also, photos do not appear in the correct order.

    They will be in date modified order, with the Photos app you can't change the field that they are sorted by - you will need to adjust their date modified fields on your computer to be in the same order as date taken.
    Try deleting the photo cache from your computer and re-try syncing them and see if they are correctly oriented : iTunes: Understanding the iPod Photo Cache folder
